36xxxx 104 Talk About Future Plans

The Magic Island of Eucidia is completely submerged, and G-47 has planned to have it remain so for a long time. That means that the chances of escape from the underwater city are not very bright just now.

But when Gillian Jones went on a tour of this strange colony beneath the sea, they were fortunate enough to meet their Eucidia friend, the girl's submarine commander. She's given them a bit of news and with it a great deal of hope.

But Gillian Jones can't tell their news to Mrs. Gregory and the captain in their own quarters, For fear of being overheard. We find that you youngsters standing on a balcony which overlooks the agricultural section of Eucredia, trying to look innocent.

Daddy did remind you that you ought to continue saying nothing. Okay, I know what's worrying you, and you can stop worrying about it. Do you think we should continue our work? No, not yet. I thought I saw the captain and Mrs. Gregory walking over this way.

We can go down and meet them. Very well, we will watch for them. Well, that's what I said the first time. If you hadn't given me an argument, we'd have saved a lot of time.

What would you suggest we do with the time? What time? The time we would have saved if we had not wasted it in talking. You can see the silliest things. Are you not your mother and the captain over there?
